 * Dear all,
 * I have a site in English that I want to automatically translate into other languages
   based on navigator language of the user’s browser, i.e if their browser is in
   German – translate from English to German, if browser language is French, English
   to French and so on. I don’t want the user to have to select language translation
   from a drop-down, but just have it translated according to their preferred browser
   language settings.
 * Further more I would like the language switcher not to be displayed.
 * Is it possible with Lingotek please?
 * Beyond this, please do you know if Lingotek translates absolutely everything,
   i.e. also the words and pages introduced by other plugins?

 * Hi nicrnicr,
 * Lingotek is built on top of the Polylang plugin. The Lingotek plugin is able 
   to translate your content, and we have support for some of the most popular plugins,
   but cannot ensure 100% *every* plugin is covered. The WordPress plugin ecosystem
   is vast 🙂
 * Translations live in your database (is not like we are proxy-ing your pages and
   translating the html responses, but we actually translate contents and store 
   in your database).
 * About if you can disable the language switcher, I’m pretty sure you can, and 
   the language detection can be configured. See [https://polylang.pro/doc/detect-the-browser-preferred-language/](https://polylang.pro/doc/detect-the-browser-preferred-language/)
   for more information, but in case of any doubt about that is better to post in
   the Polylang forum itself (probably you want to link to this original post if
   you do so they have more context).
